At Globe Life Park: First game

RHP SCOTT BAKER (0-2, 5.84)

A veteran of nine big league seasons, mostly as a fixture in the Minnesota Twins rotation, Baker is now a swingman. He has spent the season bouncing between the bullpen and the Rangers’ injury-ravaged rotation. This will be his fourth start of the season. In his last start, on July 3, he took a loss when he gave up three runs in 4 2/3 innings.
